Is Robert Kiyosaki a good reference ?

I would say yes, but his stuff isn't the best as a reference book. More of a good mindset book. That's my opinion, ymmv. I like his stuff though.

Not bad. There are some nuggets to be had, but he's big on marketing his own shit. Read with open eyes, know that he's telling you good things, but ultimately with the goal of selling you his stuff. That's true with most things though, keep your head on a swivel.

First book is good.After he is repeating himself in the other books.He has some good points that worth following like an attitude regarding money.

Yes, his stuff is useful in making you think about finances a certain way.

no theres much better people than him, preety worthless imo investing into assets instead of liabilities is the only thing worth learning from kiyosaki. Just my opinion not sure if true but I think Kiyosaki went bankrupt and had to start selling books. But he can start you to have a certain mindset.

Things I recommend

How to get rich by Felix Dennis.

anything by Jay Abrahams [Getting everything you can out of all you got]

The Four Pillars of investing by William Bernstein

I will Teach you to be rich by Ramit Sethi

The Richest Man in Babylon by George S. Clason

TLDR: set yourself up to start HAVING. more people more doors more books more resources etc...

Just remember Working is One of many ways to make money, the others is by HAVING money.

Examples: Profit from buying and selling

Lending money and collecting interest

dividend-stocks

Renting things (both physical like a apartment/home or owning a building) or renting an idea program or process (Royalties)

Owning Assets that increase in value

Junk. Buy low/sell high kind of tripe, with an imaginary "rich dad" thrown in to illustrate his points. More of a feel good fiesta than anything you can use. Check out sites like "ERE" (early retirement extreme) and forums of that nature for current methods.
